NEWS OF THE DAT.
-Under the new postal regulations, where
transient or Irregular postage matter' reaches
Its destination unpaid, doable the prepaid
rate shall be exacted on delivery.
-Tbe idea of sending the New York morn?
ing papers to Chicago by a pneumatic lube in
time to read at the breakfast table, does not
seem so feasible when we know that the law
governing pneumatic power ls said to be:
"The mean speed of transmission varies in?
versely with the length, and inversely also
'With the square root of the diameter of the
tube." If this belrue, a body which flashed
through a tube a "mlle long laang minute,
would take sixteen minutes to through
fonr miles of tnbing, and weuld crawl through
the thousand miles between New York and
h I cago la one year, two hundred and twenty
nine days, ten hours and four minutes.
-Dion Bouclcault proposes to Introduce
some radical reforms to English 'heatre
goers In the Covent Garden, which will
open next monlb. He will begin the perfor?
mances at precisely seven, o'clock, and close
them Invariably at a quarter bf fore eleven, to
enable families from a distance to reach their
homes before or by midnight; a part of the
honsewill be reserved exclusively for ladies
and children, who may come, tearlessly, un?
attended by gentlemen; "ladles visiting ibo
orchestra stalls, or the so-called dress circle,
will not be, required to remove that part of J
their head-dress which still retains the name
of bonnet;" bills of the play will be furnished
gratis; and no fees to attendants.wlll be al?
lowed.
-A correspondent of Wilkes's Spirit ol the
Times, who ought to be posted, says he has
recently careluUy examined Longfellow, and
ls convinced that he ls hopelessly broken
down. The bart leg is bathed two or three
times a day with cold water, and his Journey,
e to the well for that purpose, about ihirly
yards from the stable, too plainly Indicates
the extent and severity of his Injury. His
ankle, which has heretofore frequently in bis
training given unmistakable evidence of I
weakness, Is now co m pe te; y disabled, and the
suspensory ligaments in ibe desperate strug?
gle yielded and gave way to hts terrific pro?
pelling force; and, says the writer, "I have
not the faintest hope that they can ever again
perform their ?unctions."
-The Louisville Courier-Journal of ibe 1st
instant says arrangements for a national re?
union at the Falls of the Ohio River are at
length set on- loot; an organization has been
effected; working committees have been ap?
pointed; tbe llth and 12th of September have
been chosen as tbe lime, and there is no
reason to donbt that the proposed peaee meet?
ing will be a great affair. Carl Schurz and
John Quincy Adams-, Emerson Etheridge and
Ben. Hill, Charles Sumner and Austin Blair,
Lyman Trumbull and Horatio Seymour, Hen?
dricks^ Voorbees, Doolittle, .Vance, Bradley
Johnston, Groeabeck, Walker, ot Virginia, and j
many others eminent in the North and South
will be present.
-What is the worth of a maiden's heart ?
This question bas come to be decided by cool,
unsentimental experts. The daughter ot a
poor widow in Berlin, Germany, died of heart
disease, and the young phyalclan who attended
her during her Illness persuaded the mother,
in the interest of science, to give bim tbe poor I j
girl's h ear c. After ibe lapse of some time, the I ?
doctor asked the widow for an honorarium of
eight tbalere, fifteen silver groscben, for all
his visita abd trouble. She delayed payment;
he complained, and then she gave out that she
considered the gift of her daughter's heart as
; an equivalent to the sum demanded. It this
was not acknowledged, she required the heart
to be returned or the fee in dispute to be
handed over lo her. The doctor cannot now
produce the heart, but persists in his claim.
So the question must be trled,"^wuet her a
maiden's heart Is or ls not worth eight thalers,
Alteen silver groscben.
' -The amiable character of the German Em?
peror ls 'shown by 'the following: "Some
short time s'ice two young ladies were
searching lu (he park at Babelsberg for the
monument erected ?o.the poet Heinrich von
Kielst. The j ?ore engaged in a lively discus- |
sion with one ci the keepers, who very natu?
rally knew nothing at all abotu it, when the
Emperoi's carriage ?ppro?.clied nolselessly,and
the good-natured monarch Inquired the cause of
the dispute. 'May lt please your majesty,' said
the keeper, 'these maintain -that the monu?
ment of the poet von Kleist must be some?
where in tbe park, and they think I ought to
know where lt la.' 'Really, ladies,' said the
Emperor, 'the keeper ls right, and,you will
not find the monument here; lt ls some dis?
tance off.' So saying, the monarch got out of j
the carriage, and addressing the coachman,
said,' ^Drlve the young ladles to the monu
nent at the Frederlck-WliMam Bridge,' at the
same time motioning the ladles to get in; tho
latter were In no small embarassment at this
unexpected honor, but at length took cour?
age, and with many protestations of thanks
mounted the carriage and drove off."
-JIapoleon's son, the ex-Prince Imperial of I
France, ls beginning to lake part In public |
life. He distributed the prizes at the annual
fete of the House for Little Boys, near Lon?
don, on July 13, and on the same occasion he
made bis first speech in public, if we except i
the few words uttered at the "baptism or'
Are." His health wa3 proposed by Lord P_
Cavendish, M. P., and on rising to respond,
the newspapers tell us, he was received with)
rounds of enthusiastic cheers. He said: -'My
lord, ladles and gentlemen, I thank you very
much for the kind manner la which yon have
received the toast whloh your chairman has
so kindly proposed to yon. I have most wil?
lingly assisted In drinking the toast of 'the
health of their royal highnesses the Prince
and Princess ot Wales and. the rest of the
royal family.' In the happy recovery of hi? j
royal highness from avery serious Illness, wer
in common with all the country, took a deeply
sympathetic Interest. The name of the
Prince of Wales is closely connected with
this establishment. My visiUo your institu?
tion to-day has afforded me great enjoyment.
I wish lt the greatest possible success."
I -A remarkable activity is noted in all
branches of trade In Germany during the year
1871. The Zollverein Imporls produced a
I revenue of half a million ste-llng more than
J in 1870, the increase being chiefly on iron,
cottons and woollens. Among home-made
articles, German cotton and woollens made a
rapid recovery from the depression of the
war period, and manufacturers scarcely kept
pace willi requirement. Articles, long sup?
posed to be a monopoly ol the French, were
j sought for in Germany. Among the classes
that? prospered were the makers of mulls,
jaconets, cambrics and embroideries at Elben?
stock; of button?, fringe and lace at Annaberg;
of woven cottons (pique) at Hohenstein; of
lace in the Erzegebirge; of flowers at Berlin,
and small wares in Austria. The leather mar?
aket was never so quickly cleared as In 1871.
The wool fairs were remarkable for rising
quotations. "Such a year was not likely to
pass without a movement on the part of tbe
I working classes for higher wages. The sup?
ply of labor was not sufficient for tbe demand.
In nearly all cases concessions were made by
employers, but, as the price of commodities ,
.lias increased very nearly In proportion to the
advance in wages, the condition ot the work?
ingmen ls but little better than it was nere
j t of or e._
The Weekly News.
The rapid and constant increase in the
circulation of THE WEEKLY NEWS, especially
since the opening of the Presidential canvass,
rentiere it important that its issue should be
so timed as to accommodate the largest pos?
sible number of our readers at remote points
whcr? the mails are slow and infrequent.
In compliance, therefore, with suggestions
that have reached us from many quarters,
the publication day ol THE WEEKLY NEWS J
will in future be Wednesday, instead of Sat?
urday, as heretofore. The change will take ?
effect the present week. .
The Slate Election.
The State election takes place on Wed?
nesday, October 1G, three weeks before the
Presiden liai election. It is therefore practi -
cable to separate the State election entirely
from the Presidential canvass.
Ther%are, in the State, about sixty thou?
sand Conservatives and ninety thousand
Republicans. Tho Conservatives heartily
support the Liberal ticket. The Republi?
cans, almost to a man, propose to vote for
Graut, A sudden cbangemay be wrought J
in.the temper of the colored Republicans.
Tbey are led by a handJull of politicians
who do with them as they will. It is not
unlikely that there will be developments ina
few weeks which will moke the administra?
tion party shake in their shoes. Thia is in the
future. Any rash movement would be dis-1
astrons. ? ?
' When we torn to State affairs the feeling
is different. The Conservatives are a* tin it
for reform. They have no intention or run?
ning a State ticket. In their anxious earn?
estness, they say to the Republicans : "You
"charge the leaders of your own party with
"cheating and lying, and you say that you
"will yourselves purify the party. We take
"you at your word, aud we will vole for any
"upright und capable candMaion whom you
"may nominate; but we insist that the can?
didates bo qualified, by character and cul?
ture, for the post to which they aspire."
This is the position of the thirty thousand
Conservatives.
The sixty thousand Republicans are di?
vided; one wing consists chiefly of the
federal office-holders, and ia led by Judge
)rr, Major Corbin and ex-Congressmen
?Vhittemore and Bowen. They are all
?rantians, bat they have lashed the Scott
doses party with unsparing tongues and
ivow their determination to put forth a
lound Reform Republican ticket-such a one
is the Conservatives could with propriety
support. The rest of the Republicans, in?
cluding the bulk of the negroes, are the
irreconcilables, whose candidates for Gov?
ernor are R. K. Scott and F. J. Moses, Jr.
They arc bent on nominating a member of j
.he Ring. Their candidate cannot be voted
dr by the Conservatives or Reform Repab
i cans.
This, io brief, is the situation, and if it J
eaches anything at all, it ia that the State J
md the Presidential canvasses should be j
:ept distinct, and that the Conservatives
ibouid be in no haste to move. The pear is
lot yet ripe.
The Blue Ridge Salt.
. It ia very evident that City Attorney Cor
t>i ii does not enjoy the confidence of the tax?
paying public. They recognize bis bold?
ness, tenacity and professional skill; but
Lhey cannot forget that he has been the con
ptant gossip and companion of the leading
Radicals, and has given at least a silent
consent to their corrupt scheming. There is
gratidcation, to be sore, in seeing Mr. Cor?
bin, as at Greenville, denounce ihe Scott
Ring, accuse them of wholesale stealing,
and charge that millions have been fraudu?
lently added to ihe State debt; but the
public remember that Mr. Corbin has held a
seat in the State Senate ever since ti e radi?
calization of the government, and they look
with suspicion apon aman who lay.silent
when be might have spoken to good pur?
pose, and who only opens his mouth when
the harm is done aud his own term of office
bas expired. It is plain that if Mr. Corbin
had spoken in the Senate, as he spoke a
week or two ago in Greenville, the worat
measures of the Rings would not have been
carried out These are reasons, not for
charging Mr. Corbiu with infidelity to any
professional trust, but for placing the inter?
ests of the City of Charleston in the keeping
.of counsel who are beyond the possibility of
reproach. The conduct of the present City
Council in retaining Mr. Corbin as their At?
torney was incorapreheDsible. Their object
may have been to throw a sop to the
Radical Cerberus, but it was unwise in tue
extreme to keep in office a solicitor whom
the taxpayers do not trust and whoae per?
sonal interests have so long been antagonis?
tic to theirs. The result of the action, or,
rather, the non-action, or Council is seen in
tho Blue Ridge suit, in which Mr. Corbin
represents the City of Charleston, which
holds two-fifths of the entire stock capital of
the road.
It is commonly believed that Mr. Mackay
did not intend to push bis suit against the
THIS UHAfUfi&gj
Blue Ridge Railroad Company any further
than was needful to force a settlement of
his own claims upon the road ; bot when the
City of Charleston became a party to the
suit it was difficult for Mr. Mackay to halt or
go back. This was something gained. But
the case drags slowly along. The air is
thick with rumors, and in Columbia it is
believed that Mr. Corbin is not pushing
things ns vigorously as he might. An injust?
ice may be done him, but the city should not I
run any risk in so serious a matter. There |
should be associated with Mr. Corbin at
once a lawyer in whose ability and purity
the public repose implicit trust; and, what?
ever is done or left undone, the people will
theo be sore that there was no lack of zeal
and sincerity in prosecuting the cause.
I Had the City Council removed Mr. Corbin
last fall, there would have been no need of ?
additional counsel; the City Attorney could
have done the work. As things stand, how?
ever, it is due to Mr. Corbin, ns well as to
the city, that at least one lawyer of sagacity
and standing be, associated with bim, with
orders to pres3. the Bine Ridge suit to the
end. _ ._
Out With It !
Mr. Cardozo, the Secretary of State, made
I a speech at Abbeville and bitterly denounced
his old friends of the Ring. Whereupon a |
correspondent of the Columbia Carolinian
pertinently says:
"I have come to the conclusion thal there
can be but little sincerity In any of these
abusive tirades directed against each, other,
for I have not yet heard of any one of them
who has come forward, ns au honest man
should do who knows the ?.ctof such criminal
conduct, and furnished to the grand jury the
legal evidence of their guilt. Can the public,
black or white, be made to believe that Mr.
Cardozo, for instance, is Ignorant of the fraud
by which the Greenville Railroad swindle was
perpetrated, or some of the transactions of the
Sinking Fund Commission, or the over-Issues
of bonds? Or do Judge Orr and Mr. Corbin
possess legal evidence of the facts, which they
so publicly charge upon Speaker Hoses, ol
scattering pay certificates broadcast amongst
the faithful lo secure his election ? Or does
Judge Mackey know the truth of his public
statement that $150.000 was paid in bribes to
secure the passage ol the Phosphate bill ? And
so of all the charges thus publicly made, and
with such an air ol honest Indignation and
assumed purpose to expose them."
The Next Election?.
The next State elections of importance
are those in Vermont on September 3, und
IQ Maine on September 9. In the former I
State in 1870 the Republican majority was |
21,309, upon a total vote of 45,425. In
Maine in 1871 the whole vote was 106,883,
and the Republian majority 10,631. Ver?
mont is expected to go Republican next
month as usual ; but Mal oe may be carried
by the Liberals, if the desertions from Grant
continue. It is too early, however, to make
any positive calculations as to the chances
of the fight
The Statehouse Fixings.
A correspondent of the Columbia Phoenix \
calls attention to the fact that the State?
house furniture, including the cuspadorsand
clocks, is not yet paid for. Mr. Dennis
missed it that lime. When ibe bill is paid,
it will be considerably razeed.
Organize for Co-operation.
[From thc Columbia Carolinian.]
We take lt that the white people of South
Carolina are a unit in the desire to improve
the local government It is the one great
issue in which we are Interested, and the elec?
tion of a Pr?sidant has only an Interest to ns
as it promises to Improve our position In this
respect. It may be an open question as to the
best mode of securing the end aimed at; but
If we have been able to gather the sentiment
of the State, aB lt finds expression In the press
and at the public convocations of ihe people,
and by the utterances ot Its prominent men,
that sentiment is clear and unmistakable in
condemnation of any attempt at party organi?
zation. Nevertheless, we do not wish to be
understood aB discountenancing any effort to
secure co-operation of good citizens for this
object in any locality. Indeed, we believe
organization with this view will do good. Let
lt be known that the good men . nd true of
each locality have determined to east their
votes for reputable and capable men, and lt
will be to the Interest of the party which
wishes to succeed lo put such men forward.
